Hi, thanks for your reply.
If you were reffering to the shortcut icon on my desktop the path is already in quotes, i right clicked it
clicked properties and in target box the path to the proggy was already in quotes.

If you were reffering to start run method i tried that in quotes and got the following error.

I have not got a .ini file if that makes a difference, but then if the proggy hasn't actualy started then their wouldnt be one.

His port was inaccessible, that would likely have no effect.
It was my guess/try that his port 8080 was in use by another instance of SABnzbd...

My guess would be utorrent's web interface
utorrent was running.

It is sweet maxxing my line out at home 2.3MB/s
just a quick question, does Sabnzbd+ only download the par files if needed for repair or does it download the whole lot
